Game Description:There is a Tower that rises above all in an alternate world. No one knows who built this or why it was built. One thing is certain, the Tower both sheds a large shadow and at the same time is filled with moving shadows. There is a shadow of a boy that climbs this tower. He runs through the shadow of the Tower, solves mysteries and puzzles along the way, and fights off enemies that try to impede his progress. The boy is not affected by gravity but his movement is restricted within the thin boarder between light and shadow. The boy is not alone in his endeavors as a creature of light joins him on his quest. A winged sylph known as a “Spangle” supports him in his journey.

Taking a major cue from the atmosphere and themes of ICO and adding some of the darkly devious 2D side-scrolling nature of Limbo, Lost in Shadow is a visually distinctive Wii side scroller. If the game could have actually lived up to its desired pedigree, it would have been stunning. But as is, this isn't a bad little adventure game.
